They can't all be arrogant condescending idiots. A knowledgeable physician would have examined you for sign of fluid retention. If yours didn't that's neglect even if she upped your diuretic. Some colleges and community centers offer low cost access to swimming pools. Maybe that's an option. You're in my thoughts. I agree with AZ, you need to find another doctor.

Don't use an excuse like, "they're all like that," to justify continuing to eat abuse. Any doctor that "automatically assumes" all weight gain must be from a cupcake binge is too ignorant of her own profession for you to put your life in her hands, anyway.

I was diagnosed with congrestive heart failure last spring - which is why I was surprised the cardiologist wasn't more concerned. Everything I've read, says I should see a doctor ASAP for rapid gain. However, I firmly believe that almost every single doctor out there has the same reaction to a person who is overweight - even if they are dieting and have been losing - any weight gain is automatically assumed to be from food. I will definitely be taking it slow and easy for exercise. I'm looking forward to the nice spring weather. Thank you AZ, it truly means so much having support.
